Yeah, you're right about it. What China does is not a simple “assimilation .. They systematically take the religious beliefs, culture, language and freedom of the Uighurs. This is a process that is planned and defined as genocide in international law.
Also, it should not be forgotten that Uighurs have never been a natural part of China. They are part of the Turkish lineage with a rich history, whose roots are very deep. Therefore, the issue is not just a cultural disappearance; It is the conscious attempt to destroy a nation.
